April Garden Club Meeting
April 8 @ 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Heritage Tree Program
Speaker Carmen Goetschius will talk to us about Heritage Trees
Carmen is a Pacific Northwest native who has traveled and lived all over the United States. While living in Charleston, S.C. she became interested in the old trees of the South. She will share how Charleston celebrates their old trees and look at the Heritage trees here in Canby and the Willamette Valley.
One beautiful tree in Canby is the Philander Lee tree at 292 N Holly Street. The oak tree the family planted sits on the site of the family’s third home, which was constructed by carpenters with the Oregon and California Railroad in 1869.
